HOW IT HAPPENED

- At 35:26, the Yellow Jackets were awarded a penalty kick. Zach Behe made a hard diving stop and preserved a 1-0 lead for the Maroons going into halftime.
- Just under 10 minutes into the second half, Harrison Kraus took a pass from Berk, from the right side, and fired a goal past a dive from the goalie to put an insurance goal on the board for the Maroons at 54:54.
- Less than four minutes later, Krause fired a rocket of a shot from Jake Berecz at 58:48 to put the game out of reach with Roanoke leading 3-0.
- The Yellow Jackets were only able to take one more shot, a save by Behe, the rest of the game allowing the Maroons to pick up their second straight shutout ODAC win.
